Powerdrugs - Spectrum Of Homeopathy 02/2010Cacao, Cola, Coca & Co.
Power Drugs are now a major part of our daily life, yet consumption of these drugs is culturally speaking an ancient issue of human existence. Ephedrine, for example, is currently a widely used doping agent, yet it has also been used in different cultures for over 5000 years. Instead of the limited ritual or medicinal use found in older cultures, stimulants are used on a daily basis in our modern competitive societies especially to increase performance. They make us faster, better, and more effective! |

Homeopathy, an effective medicine
After everything I am hearing at the moment, it was very good for me to read the reports of doctors from different countries who were able to help patients with homeopathy. I was very impressed by the article on CO2. All people worldwide who wear a mask are affected. This increases the CO2 content in the blood, which is harmful to us humans. It triggers symptoms that can easily be attributed to the virus. To all those who have contributed to this issue: Thank you very much! read more ... 43 people find this helpful.

Very exciting and informative reading
As an interested non-medical person (is there a female form of layperson??), I have read the articles very carefully and find them extremely informative. Fortunately, no one in our family has Corona yet, but we have been taking Influenzinum for several years and have been flu-free ever since. I would also see Bryonia as Genius epidemicus in our latitudes, as it shows the most similarities. read more ... 16 people find this helpful. Do you find this helpful?

Long Covid: Hervorragend
I think this booklet is really remarkable and excellent. The articles show that there are various homeopathic ways out of the misery if you are affected by Covid or the vaccination against it. This takes away a lot of fear and gives you the confidence to get through such a crisis well. Many thanks to the authors for their search for appropriate treatment options and for putting their knowledge into words and publishing it. This booklet is also interesting for laypeople and highly recommended. read more ... 14 people find this helpful. Do you find this helpful?

Genius epidemicus
Last week, the new Spektrum booklet "Genius epidemicus - Homeopathy in times of the pandemic" arrived and I dived straight into it. It is so valuable to be able to study these wonderful experiences of colleagues (all over the world) in such a condensed form. Thank you for this opportunity. Your Spektrum team is doing a unique job, which I greatly appreciate! read more ... 10 people find this helpful. Do you find this helpful?

I am thrilled!
I have now read several issues of "Spektrum der Homöopathie" and am enthusiastic about every issue. Reading them has given me an understanding of the topic in question that I didn't have before, and in a short space of time, because the basic and important information is well structured and presented in an interesting way. I also feel that there is a lot of passion behind this magazine, which has a very motivating effect on me. Thank you very much for having it! read more ... 8 people find this helpful.

The Infect Spectrum is one of the best journals I can remember. So many coherent approaches to the remedy, all written by competent authors, so many good facets you won't find anywhere else in a journal. Every article is coherent and informative.
I particularly liked the tips from the experienced Ute Bullemer, whom I didn't know before; I will think of Anantherum for the frequent cervical erosion; Erodium is also often good, by the way.
Heiner Frei's method is well presented and has long been a welcome addition to our daily routine.
I found T. Curtis' description of the trembling aspen, which she describes very well and substantiates with cases that can then also be explained by plant theory, to be excellent work.
D. Payrhuber also has very nice cases, especially the two Helleborus cases.
Rajan Sankaran's Pulsatilla case also coincides with our best Puls cases, because they are not just as gentle as is always claimed: this characteristic is part of the picture and corresponds to stage 2. I found the fact that the patient indignantly slapped a Riksha driver interesting, because it is true: the Ranunculaceae are all more or less quickly indignant and so irritable that they can also strike, as is known from Staph. Internal or external trembling or quivering is also common to all Ranunculaceae.
Franz Swoboda's excellent article made me laugh a lot. It should be added that the quintessence of his "epidemic" is also described in Jan Scholten's Elements: Ant-t helps practically all cases of chronic bronchitis to a greater or lesser extent (he did not claim this about any other remedy, and it is true), but it does not cure. His new observation of the mycoplasma nosode as a counterpart is particularly interesting.
Then the cholera article: simply super, the best thing I have read about cholera so far. Especially the good refutation that only the avoidance of bloodletting and the (low) intake of fluids was the only reason for the indisputable superiority of the homeopathic treatments at that time, I found very conclusive.
Then the Iquilai study: where can you find something like that today? First class.
I even found Kate Birch's birch drink for all vaccination problems interesting, even if it has to be said that you can make things unnecessarily difficult for yourself with too many theoretical considerations. At least you understand why everything has to be packed into a potion. A nice case, after all.
The molluscs by Mrs Schuller-Schreib are also worthwhile. In this context also the Calc case by K Adal.
Then also the reference to the index at the end: a super booklet. read more ...
